Bollywood : Is Shahrukh Khan the King Khan ?

Is Shahrukh Khan the King Khan ? Recently in an interview Shahrukh Khan declared that he is the King Khan .. he is the Ronaldinho of acting !! But a recent opinion poll by Hindustan Times found that Aamir Khan was the real King Khan according to the majority of online users.

Aamir Khan ’s recent hits like Faana and Rang De Basanti are fresh in the minds of viewers and his experimentations surely helped Aamir win a lot of hearts. Users thought Shahrukh Khan was repetitive. But the poll was based on responses from less than 1700 users and we all know how biased a poll could be. A simple endorsement by a website or a forum can tilt a 1700 votes survey completely to the other side.

But the poll was not so surprising as Shahrukh Khan has been away from the limelight for quite a few months. Shahrukh Khan movies are no doubt huge crowd pullers with fans from all ages and all over the world. Though after the Brazil France match, we are not sure if Shahrukh Khan will still use the Ronaldinho comparison !! Shahrukh Khan is surely one of the best actors Bollywood has produced and he has proved time and again that he is the one of the most bankable Bollywood stars today.

When we talk of Khans, the poll should have included the other big Khan .. Salman Khan . Salman has a huge fan base and though he has his problems with the law, he has fared very well in the box office and has a huge fan following. Salman Khan does not rely on any specific formula but still continues to be the sweetheart of the female fans. At our desifans.com StarWars hoTTest celeb contest, Salman Khan actually beat Shahrukh Khan in the semi finals !! So our own Sallu bhai is not far behind in the war of Khans.

But the fact remains that Shahrukh Khan has been very profitable for Bollywood, churning hits after hits while Aamir Khan was very selective in doing his one-movie per year.. while Salman Khan has been busy with his problems with the law. There are a few young Khans and some older Khans … so when it comes to who is the King Khan .. its better to let the fans do the saying !!! What do you say ?
